has anyone had problems with the extending arms on the maxi cosi family seat base not extending lease? One of the extending arms just will not budge.

Do not understand what you mean by extending arm. I had this product for 11 months and I have not had any problems with it so far.

I have just purchased the toilet and installed lately, have not thought about replacing yet. Try direct to Thetford, or my last toilet I went to home depotand bought an elongated seat. A slight medication and it worked. That's all I can offer. Bud

Hello Victoria, and thanks for your interest in the Maxi Cosi Mico NXT and AP base! The Mico NXT and AP were actually not manufactured in 2011; they were not manufactured until approximately 2013. So just for clarification, since there are numerous Mico models on the market, this base would not fit any of the original Mico car seat models or the brand new Mico Max 30. This base is only designed to fit the Mico NXT and AP models. If you have the original Mico car seat, you would want the base model 22517-BLK for that car seat. Conversely, the 22517-BLK will not work for the Mico NXT, AP, or Max 30. There was a design change that moved the base release handle from the base on the original Mico models to the back of the car seat itself on the NXT/AP models. The Max 30 has a rebound bar on it that is specific to that seat. That is why these bases and seats are not interchangeable. The 1 exception would be that you can purchase a Mico Max 30 base for use with the AP and NXT as they have the same base release mechanism and the Max 30 base is tested/approved for a higher rated seat (30 lb seat) so it can be used with the 22 lb. NXT and AP models. The AP/NXT bases cannot be used for the Max 30 as previously advised because they are 22 lb. bases and the Max 30 is a 30 lb. maximum weight seat. I hope this information is helpful for you. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please let us know and we will gladly help you any way we can. You may reach us via email consumer@maxicosi-us.com or phone 1-800-951-4113.

I have this problem also. The seat is easy to adjust but between my wife and I the handlebars are a major ordeal to adjust; there are four bolts that need to be removed, then move the handlebars and then replace the bolts. Not a quick fix.

I have this issue as well. There's maybe a quarter inch of space between the nut and the bottom of the arm. It's as if the bolt is too long. Not really sure what to do other than stick a bunch of washers in there.

If the chest plate doesn't stay latched, then it's faulty. I would return the seat for another. I had that problem occasionally on the first Boulevard we owned, but this new model seems to have a better design and we've had no trouble.

I was wondering the same thing. Been using the seats a lot with no problem. Everyone loves them!

I have never experienced this issue and I have two of these seats! Hopefully someone else has some suggestions for you.

Check with the manufacturer of your current seat. They might have a simple solution to fix your space issue. If not then I would get another car seat that fits your car better. Whatever you do always make sure you're installing your seat safely. As others stated this is supposed to be only used for the Diono seats. Good luck!

Have similar issue, just have to seat it correctly and get the feedback from the phone. Never really thought of it as an issue. Had mine for 8 months now, no problems, and I love the convenience.

My maxi-cosi infant seat does not fit without the adapter from baby jogger. It is too tight. I think that will probably be the same with all double strollers because the seats are more tight than on a single stroller. I hope I could help.

I have not had a need to try to remove the base from the seat. It is not an infant carrying seat. If you were thinking of just having two bases in two different vehicles and remove the seat on regular basis it would be easier to just remove the entire thing. Plus I believe the anchors are on the actual seat not just on the base. I would look into buying two instead of trying to regularly remove and reinstall.

I had a similar problem until I discovered that the rubber/neoprene had come off. Have not had a problem since. It stays where I put it and just leave it. Don't move it until I get a new automobile.

I think if I can get the seat stabilized it will be comfortable. Have tightend the screws as noted above. Up/down movement has stopped, but the seat still moves left to right when riding. Anyone else having this problem?

I had the same problem at first. There's a knob at the bottom of the machine near the footplate (the diagram in the manual calls it the "short knob"); you need to pull this knob out and then slide the base of the machine out so that it extends fully. If nothing moves when you pull the knob, jiggle it a bit and keep pulling. It's a bit sticky but if you keep at it, you'll get it. It's easier to do with two people, but I managed it by myself too. Once you extend the machine, keep pulling until the short knob snaps back into a hole near the top--just keep looking for a hole in the metal bars. When the machine is fully extended, the seat will slide back and forth like it's supposed to. Hope this helps.

Have you looked at the bolt underneath the seat? Make sure that is lined up with grooves and really tight. Hope this helps.

Hi, I am able to extend the machine fully by pulling the short knob out, but the seat won't slide. What am I missing here ?
